AXIS Optimizer makes it easy to view and export live data

Dashboard with three ways to use metadata with Milestone

Axis Communications announces the external release of version 5.4 of AXIS Optimizer for XProtect on 7 March 2025. This latest release includes several improvements to Axis Insights metadata dashboard to make it easier for users to view, analyze, and share their data. 

AXIS Optimizer insights dashboard turns data into valuable insights in the form of charts and graphs showing statistics, trends, and anomalies. Available in the Smart Client, this dashboard provides both operator and system administrator roles valuable insights derived from metadata from Axis AI-powered cameras. The operator dashboard provides visualized aggregated data from the operator’s existing camera views. The admin dashboard delivers system-wide overviews of device online/offline status plus all active system alarms and events. 

Continuous real-time situational awareness  

With AXIS Optimizer 5.4, these dashboards now display live, real-time data from the system. By simply opening a dashboard with specific data from selected cameras, the dashboard starts loading live data and creating charts and graphs. In addition, a new auto update feature means that charts and graphs are automatically updated without the need for interaction. This is especially useful when displaying live data on a separate monitor as charts and graphs will be automatically updated. 

Data deep dives and tooltips 

It's possible to take a deep dive into the details by maximizing a chart. Users can easily use their mouse to scroll and zoom in and out at certain time intervals in the chart. Viewing data in a single chart does not always communicate all relevant information. For example, admin role charts can show how many cameras are offline. To acquire the additional information about which cameras are offline, users can simply place their mouse cursor over a number, and it will change color and provide text information in a tooltip.  

Easily share data  

This latest release also allows users to easily share data from the dashboards. For instance, users can copy and paste a single chart to the computer’s clipboard. The chart can then be pasted as a .PNG image into another program, such as a document, presentation, or an e-mail. What’s more, it’s now possible to export data for further analysis as well as comparison with data from other systems. For instance, users can export data from a single chart to a .CSV file and open it in their preferred spreadsheet program. 

Key capabilities added in this release: 

  • Live loading of data  
  • Auto update of all live data  
  • Maximize a chart  
  • Tooltips for additional details 
  • Copy charts as .PNG images 
  • Export chart data as .CSV file 

Available for free as a one-time installer, version 5.4 of AXIS Optimizer is a cost-efficient suite of integrations that optimizes the performance of Axis devices in Milestone.

AXIS Optimizer for XProtect version 5.4 will be available on March 7, 2025, and can be downloaded here.
